Round 15, 2011. We lost to Carlton by 103 points but were around 20 goals down at 3qtr time. I left shortly after 3 qtr time.

I had a pretty good go at forgetting it though. Picked up a bottle of Johnnie Walker on the way home, drank half of it, and woke up sleeping in the bath tub with a pillow the next afternoon. The hangover lasted 24 hours.

Fortunately I can no longer remember much about the game, but I know it happened, I know I was there, and I know it sucked.

Round 6 2007. Geelong beat us by 157 points.  I reckon that game also kick-started their era of dominance which continues today

There have been plenty over the last few years but in the last year it would have to be the Fremantle draw this year. Finding a spot to watch the game in the Playmakers bar on a cruise ship in the Mediterranean sea and spending those few hours for a no result was extremely frustrating and annoying. There were so many other bars I could of been in without the disappointment. Balta has some making up to do.
